Hey guys unfortunately we are going to have to cancel the beginner MTB ride until the spring :(
Because of all the rain and flooding, the conditions of the D&L and single tracks are not good.
I know it's a bummer but there's nothing we can do :(
If anyone has any idea if we can change the location let me know!

26/08/2021

Hey guys due to the incoming storm combined with the extreme heat and flooded trails we've decided to cancel the bike ride for tonight. We want to take care of our trails as well as it's riders :)

Thanks everyone!

Ride. Build. Advocate.

The epitome of a grassroots effort, Bike Jim Thorpe was started by a group of cyclists digging mountain bike trails. The concept is not new; in fact, it is as old as the trails surrounding our town and inspired by the generations of bikers & trail builders before us.

The beautiful mountains surrounding Jim Thorpe have led to an incredible network of bike trails. The original sculptors of some of these trails range from wild game to the remnants of industry. And like countless bike towns across America, trail access and mapping is limited due to private and public land ownership & liability.

Bike Jim Thorpe’s mission is to legitimize, develop, and maintain Jim Thorpe’s cycling network and community. In order to do this, we want to partner with the local community, government, and property owners on land access and support. In short, put the townspeople first and the bikes will follow.
